    I've been following it for the last couple of hours. Not much happening apart from her being a little restless and changing position every half hour or so. She's also been yawning. Trying to get a dinner in between, afraid I'll miss something.:)


    Thanks for the link.

    She looks just as I left her last night. Talk about watching paint dry. Surely something has to happen today.

    I'm not convinced that bear is in labour at all :D I've been checking in now and again, called the kids to watch yesterday at one point when she seemed to be getting restless but alas there she is this morning still sleeping sound, not a cub in sight.

    Think she's in hibernation myself :). Have the sound turned up so if I hear anything I'm back to check in on her. I think her breathing has gotten louder since yesterday. Hope it happens today, its been going on a long time.

    All I keep hearing from the kids is "Mam, you're not still watching that".

    There is a possible 3rd cub. They are awaiting confirmation.

    Cant believe how much they sound like human babies.

    Smodgley. You have a lot to answer for. Have just spent a week watching Jewel. I thought when the cubs were born that would be it for me. Now I'll have to watch them grow.:D Has been absolutely amazing to watch.:)
